Trip to LA!!

At the end of February, beginning of March, we were asked to go to a missions conference an hour away from LA.  So we planned an impromptu trip to Disneyland/California Adventure.  My parents were able to meet us there and we had such a fun time! We were able to see so many incredible things in such a short time.  We saw the Rose Bowl, Hollywood, Santa Monica Pier, Rodeo Drive, Beverly Hills, Disneyland, and California Adventure. These are just a few of the pics we took while we were there.

 The first McDonalds EVER was near Immanuel Baptist Church (the church that was having the missions conference)

 We drove around all the places we wanted to see in the LA area and while we were in Hollywood they were doing the Oscars!!  It was so neat seeing them set it all up.

 Unfortunately, since it was February, it rained on us and was pretty chilly some of the time.

HOWEVER, that did not stop us!!!:)

 Emma, Ty, PaPa, and MiMi in one of the lines:)

Ty was able to sit and help the "cast member" on this ride.

Valentine's Day 2012

For Valentine's Day this year we did our annual heart shaped breakfast, fried chicken dinner, and treasure hunt for small goodies!  I made the hunt a little harder and outside of our apartment this year and the kids had such a great time.
